Closing out November with an extended podcast (since I’ll take off Thursday to celebrate the holiday) but don’t despair, I’ll have plenty of courses to fill your sports appetite as the latest program is coming at ya. On deck:

(6:30) There’s no secret as college football has had a tremendous season to date, therefore needing to apologize for my prediction set a month ago. You had FIVE teams in the top 16 lose which turned the landscape of the playoff upside down. Some of the big themes that I’ll unpack. Indiana wasn’t ready to swim in the deep end of the pool as they lost to Ohio State. Do they have what it takes to qualify or make some noise in the playoff? The SEC was a huge part of how topsy turvy Saturday was. Alabama gets whacked at Oklahoma. Are they done? Texas A&M is defeated in four OT’s vs. Auburn. Do they still have a shot to get in the tournament? Ole Miss suffers a crushing loss with two late interceptions at Florida which jeopardizes their chances of a playoff. Also, BYU & Colorado lost tough games on the road where they may not make the top 12 when it’s all said and done. I’ll even preview the schedule over the holiday weekend and tell you which teams are in and out at the moment.

(28:34) NFL Week 12 had its moments, but overall wasn’t a great Sunday. Kansas City had to sweat out a win in regulation vs. the lowly Carolina Panthers on the road. Is there cause for concern regarding the two time defending champs? The Eagles are in flight behind the heroics of Saquon Barkley and his 300 yard plus performance from scrimmage. Has Barkley thrusted himself to the top of the MVP mix? Are the Washington Commanders starting to fade in the NFC East? They lost a brutal game to Dallas after a miraculous TD with seconds to go was spoiled by a missed extra point that would’ve tied the game. And what about the NFC West? Seattle is now tied with the Arizona Cardinals, but have the head to head advantage to control their own destiny at the moment. I’ll review all that’s taken place (including a not so shocking letdown in Cleveland by the Steelers) and peek at the Week 13 schedule to set you up for Thanksgiving through Monday night.

(57:38) The NBA is off in the clouds just a month into their season. I have a thought on how the Spurs have played recently and how important will it be for them to clinch a playoff spot down the road. I’ll recap who’s done well and who’s been scuffling and the upcoming schedule over the next seven days.

(1:03:16) Alexander Ovechkin will be out of the lineup for 4-6 weeks with a fractured fibula that he sustained vs. Utah last week. How does this hamper him in his quest to top Wayne Gretzky for the all time goal scoring lead in NHL history? Sidney Crosby achieves another milestone by becoming the 21st player in history with 600 goals. And there’s a new coach in St. Louis. To a sports fans surprise, the replacement is one who was just released from his position last week, in a one Jim Montgomery of the Boston Bruins. The forthcoming week has a lot of great matchups that I’ll uncover for your edification.

(1:12:07) MLB’s hot stove has been rather chilly. There were a couple of transactions that hasn’t moved the needle (Reds-Royals trade and Yusei Kikuchi signs with LAA) as the Winter Meetings are two weeks away.

Top Storylines (Purdy/Dak) & Predictions For A 'Not So Wild' Card NFL Weekend? Georgia Drubs TCU. Curry's Return Means Warriors Success? Carlos Correa Saga Finally Ends...Back With Twins!

Back on my mid-week podcast grind as I bring the pain on all that's going on throughout the sports landscape. On deck:

(2:35) NFL fans rejoice as Wild Card Weekend is upon us. I'll delve into every nook and cranny with what will take place as the playoffs get underway. I'll have all of the top storylines (i.e. rematches from the regular season, Brock Purdy, Dak Prescott/Cowboys, and much more) heading into this round, predictions as to who'll move onto the Divisional Round and why we may have to wait until Monday night to have an exciting game to watch from start to finish? I'll also get into the two coaches who were fired this week. Texans Lovie Smith and Cardinals Kliff Kingsbury have been shown the door. What can we possibly expect from both franchises as they head into the offseason with plenty on their collective plates?

(33:32) The Georgia Bulldogs showed why they're the best team in college football, drubbing TCU 65-7 in the National Championship Game. Sadly, former USC tailback & Heisman Trophy winner, Charles White, passed away at the age of 78.

(38:49) Kevin Durant will be on the shelf for a month when he suffered a knee injury in Miami on Sunday. How will the Nets fare without their MVP candidate? Donovan Mitchell made his first trip as a visitor to Utah, dropping 46 points in a loss. How was the reception from the home crowd upon his return? Speaking of which, Steph Curry is back in the lineup after a long absence due to a shoulder injury. Are the Warriors primed to make a run in the West? How about the Heat's perfection at the free throw line (40-40) vs. OKC as they eked out a win vs. the Thunder. I'll get a handle on all that's happening in the Association, especially some separation out West with the top eight seeds in the conference for the first time all year.

(45:28) The NHL is a week and change away from their All-Star Break. Not a lot to report as we're at the halfway point of the season.

(48:15) The Carlos Correa Soap Opera has FINALLY concluded. He re-signs with the Twins as we can put this saga to bed. Was this a good deal, considering he had THREE OTHER DEALS on the table, but settled for this one? And where do the Mets go to try to add and put them over the top? What in the world is going on with Red Sox INF Trevor Story? He'll need Tommy John surgery to repair his UCL in his throwing arm. Why did he wait too long to have this procedure now that he'll be out to the All-Star Break?
